So will Wizarding World cure all those post-Potter depressives? Is it the answer to their prayers or incantations or whatever?

Yes, this attraction will certainly be a balm for their deprived souls. It will convince them that, though the outpouring from Ms. Rowling’s pen has stopped, Hogwarts lives on. The trouble is, you have to leave sometime. And once outside, the ordinary may seem more drab than ever. Even for a merely casual fan like me.

Ohmigod, I can't wait to go!!! I'm not crazy enough to go on opening day (well... only because the hubby has to work...), and as excited as I am, I don't know if I'll even go opening weekend. A), it will be so hot, and B) I can't even begin to imagine the crowds. However, I do plan on going before the baby is born. I know I can't ride any rides, but I'm mostly excited about the shops and all the little details anyway. And I so want to buy a wand, a chocolate frog, and try some pumpkin juice (maybe even butterbeer, as long as there's no alcohol). I'm a total nerd :love

I'm thinking the butterbeer has nothing to do with beer, from what I've read. You should be good :)

Kaitlyn might go a week from Sunday, with her friends, but I'll try it next time we're in the area. I can't wait!
